hi -
perhaps you might move a bit higher - around 7.12mhz.
i usually can work up a qso in that part of the band most time. how long did you call for? with qrp power it takes a little effort - someone either has to hear you or wants to work someone that might be a little light rather than someone banging in with qro. cw really is a nice mode to work for long qso's. for some reason cw fans are really chatty more so than the ssb folks. i have had a lot of great qsos in the general band location that you are calling in so be patient - i assume that you are calling in the evening? after dark
is the best bet for qrp. enjoy!
